Linkstationwiki.ORG Mainpage History

NOTE: We now have an OpenLink firmware for the HG LinkStation! All of the PPC software packages WILL function on HG LinkStation. FreeLink for the HG LinkStation will be available soon.

I’ve made some major changes to the wiki software, such as a spell checker (please use this!), a preview function, a save function, interactive drawings, a code beautifier, definitions tool tips, and comment boxes. The EditQuickReference page, also shown below every edit box, has a list of available functions. You may use the WikiSandbox to test the new functions. Please let me know if you encounter any problems. - frontalot

Tyr has written an article on how to install SlimServer on the MIPSel LinkStation. See MIPSelSlimServer.

OpenLink 0.51b is available. I don’t recommend 0.5b users upgrade as this is only a minor bug fix.

I’ve added a precompiled mt-daapd for the MIPSel LinkStation. See MIPSel Packages for more information.

Welcome to the LinkStationWiki! This site is primarily geared towards Buffalo Technology’s amazing network attached storage (NAS) device called the LinkStation. You’ll also find tutorials on installing and configuring Debian, performance tuning Samba, securing Apache, and much more. By design a wiki is only as good as the people who use it, so please help make this wiki great by contributing your knowledge.

Old Get Involved Page from Linkstationwiki.ORG

Get involved; we need your help! I have ranked our needs from least difficult to most difficult.

Donate:

The easiest thing anyone can do is donate money. Simply click the PayPal donate button located at the left menu bar. No donation is too small! The next round of donations will be going towards acquiring a Gigabit LinkStation (powerpc-hdhglan). We also need to acquire a development LinkStation for timtimred. He is working hard on a new kernel and many of the development tools for OpenLink.

The dollar amounts are rounded to account for Paypal transaction costs.

Beta Testing:

We need beta testers for all projects! You may download beta releases from the “snapshots” directory in the downloads area. These releases should be considered for testing purposes only and hence unsuitable for mainstream use. You should check the forums to see exactly what is being tested before you download a snapshot. Please help out by reporting bugs via the bug tracker.

Articles:

Share your knowledge by writing a wiki article. Please make sure to post your article in the appropriate area.

Package Development:

We are in the process of developing a new public FTP system. The new system will be available soon.
